I guess since the sub was only 40GT (gross tonnage) it didn't have an Automatic Identification System (AIS) on it only ships over 300GT require an AIS.

Even if it did I wonder if an AIS operates separate from the ship's radio system.

You can track ships by their AIS and some website sell historical data to show where a ship has been.
